Did you guys happen to see the "isight-looking" web cam on Apple Cinema Display during WWDC presentation. Yeah, on the top of the display that Job was using during the presentation. Are those old firewire iSights?

There is (at least) 2 USB webcam that works with Mac OS X and iChat without additional drivers. Confirmed is the Creatives webcam Live! Cam Optia and unconfirmed is the Microsoft Xbox Live Vision for the Xbox 360, both should work strait out of the box i Mac OS X (10.4.8).

They should still sell them separately. Not everybody wants the cam stuck smack bang in the middle at the top of their display. Or wants to move the display to move the camera. For laptops and iMac's it's cool to include them there, but they should still sell a separate unit.
